Sprint training doesn’t require much equipment

One of the great things about sprint training is that it doesn’t require much equipment.⠀⠀Despite less than ideal circumstances, some of my athletes are still finding ways to get better. Dimitri and Andrew had been consistently training hard going into the COVID-19 crisis and aren’t going to let this inconvenience affect their work ethic.⠀⠀Even without access to a weightroom they can still work on improving their speed and power with low-equipment demand drills like band resisted partner sprints. All this drill takes is your co-quarantined sibling and a @perform_better Superband.⠀⠀By supporting the working athlete with a band it allows them to stay in the acceleration posture longer so that they can train acceleration mechanics and force production in that specific position.⠀⠀Cues We Want To Focus On:⠀⠀✅ High Knee Drive✅ Ankle Dorsiflexion✅ Strong Arm Drive (Hands going from Head past Hips)✅ Forward Projection of the Torso⠀⠀We programmed this drill for 10 yards at a time and performed 5 sets total. Be sure to provided adequate rest in between sets, ideally alternating back and forth between athletes allowing a few minutes rest. We want to ensure that the athlete can maintain quality sprinting form and is not suffering from excess fatigue during the drill.
